4 Operation and maintenance
4.1
General
Just like highly sensitive measuring instruments, Sample Processors require
proper care as well. Excess contamination of the instrument may result in
functional disruptions and a reduction in the lifetime of the otherwise
sturdy mechanics and electronics of the instrument.
Severe contamination can also have an influence on the measured results.
Regular cleaning of exposed parts can prevent this to a large extent.
Spilled chemicals and solvents must be removed immediately. In particular,
the connector strip (especially the power plug) should be protected from
contamination.
